I think this might be interesting to some of you here....
Since I officially buried DEATHSTRIKE about a year ago things have changed to the better and with the help of my wife I decided to go on with the label.
The 2 already (RADEMASSAKER 7" and MORBID EXECUTION / EXORCISM Split 7")announced releases are currently worked on and as it seems DEATHSTRIKE will be continued on a higher level than before.

The DEATHSTRIKE Online Shop is going through a major change,we update it to a Oscommerce System which will make all orders more convinient and things easier for us. Also you canbe sure what we have in the shop is actually available ! We are currently working on adding the existing items in thenew Online Shop System.

Some new stuff planned to be out 2008 in somewhat particular order....

DR049 - EXORCISM / MORBID EXECUTION Split 7"EP
Pure old school death metal from EXORCISM, if you´re into old UNLEASHED, AUTOPSY, and even stuff like PROFANATICA this is for you. MORBID EXECUTION are a THRONEUM side project which deliver a hellish sound with only the most primitive riffs and arrangements, think of HELLHAMMER and the likes. Out probably February 2008.

DR050 - RADEMASSAKER - Reanimation of the ancient demons 7"EP
4 new tracks recorded already in 2005 in the same session as the split 7" with EXORCISM. So if you know that one you know what to expect soundwise. Old school death metal with only drums, bass and vocals delivered through the influences of SLAUGHTER, HELLHAMMER, NUNSLAUGHTER and all those bands which deliver nothing than pure energy instead of gay bullshit ! Limited to 300 copies only, this one is already sent off to press and will be out in january !

Other planned releases for 2008…

NOMINON / EXORCISM Split 7"EP
Pure old school death metal worship on 7" vinyl. Nothing more to add, probably a coloured vinyl edition of 100 copies will be done next to 400 black vinyls.

SACRILEGIUM – Wicher LP
After 12 years of it´s first release this masterpiece of polish black metal will be finally out on vinyl. Next to bands like GRAVELAND, INFERNUM, BEHEMOTH and others which where around at the same time the in our opinion best polish band ever went through their short career quite unnoticed. The vinyl will have liner notes of the members, unused pics and some other nice special details which will be worked on at the moment. Release is scheduled for summer 2008.

And a yet untitled Compilation LP featuring the most damned and impure side of black metal with bands like ANAL BLASPHEMY, CRUCIFIXION WOUNDS, INFERNAL GOAT, BLASPHEMOPHAGER, BLACK PRIEST OF SATAN, NECROSLUT, PHANTOM, EXEKUTIONER OF CHRIST and some others.

That´s a nice idea! You should add the "Sleeptime" tracks aswell

I thought about that too, since the album is too long for a single LP anyway, this might turn out as DLP with bonus stuff. But wait and see...
